Please join us in 2010 and make a difference in the lives of child with cancer!
On September 25th, 2010 Megan’s Wings will host their 6th Annual 5K Walk/Run and 1K Kid’s Fun Run in memory of Megan Savage who lost her life to Leukemia at the age of 9. The Savage Family hosts this event in September in recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Morning activities include the 1K Kid’s Fun Run, 5K Run/ Walk, a spectacular raffle & silent auction (so bring extra cash), continental breakfast for all participants, and live entertainment to bring the runners and walkers in!
Each participant can add their thumbprint to a special “Butterfly Banner” which Megan’s Wings takes to the Children’s Hospitals showing the children with cancer how many people care and are making a difference! The morning event ends with a beautiful and memorable “Live Butterfly Release” in memory of all loved ones who have lost their battle with cancer.
Participants are encouraged to “Go the Extra Mile” and collect pledges for their race! Over $30,000 was raised last year at this event, and a record 800 participants registered to Run and Walk to make a difference in 2009. We look forward to seeing that number reach 1000! Our goal for 2010 is $40,000!
